Admission to a graduate program is offered to applicants who have a bachelor's
degree from an accredited college or university and show high probability of success
in the program and the profession. The University admits students year-round,
allowing them to begin in any term, including summer. If the student has taken
coursework as a graduate student at large at Benedictine University, the grade
point average earned will be considered in the decision to admit the student.
An application will be considered ready for review when the following items
have been received:
- All college transcripts (official and sealed). Transcripts from
universities or colleges outside of the United States will require a
foreign credit evaluation from Educational Credential Evaluators.
- Letters of reference (quantity depending upon program)
- Goal statement
- Autobiographical statement – Master of Science in Clinical
Psychology (M.S.C.P.) program only
- Departmental interview may be required at the discretion of
